Amendment to the Escrow Agreement
Approval was granted on a disinterested shareholder basis to adopt a new form of escrow agreement and reduce the number of escrow shares by 1,750,000.

The adoption of this new form of agreement and the proposed release schedule (three years), are subject to TSXV approval. The shareholders also approved a redistribution of the escrow shares such that these shares will be held by current members of the Board and Management, as well as the Company’s Founders and Co-Inventors.
